1 Rock Valley Officials Association Penalty Enforcement

Stalling  RULE 6-10  Read Situations (examples) on page 68 to better understand stalling.  We do not call stalling on 3/4, 5/6 age level games.

What Influences Stalling?  “the defensive team must attempt to play the ball within the goal area”  Does “attacking goal” mean shooting?  How long do you wait?  Deliberate stalling?  Last 2 minutes?  Penalty “killing”  Level of Play  Duration of possession  Score  Attitude/Opinion of Losing Coach  Aggressiveness of Offense  Game Time Remaining  Partner’s opinion 3

Stalling : Rationale  Rationale: Cleaner wording when “it is left to the judgment of the officials.” Defense must be required to come out of a tight zone if it wants the offense to be warned for stalling.  The stalling warning remains in effect until a goal is scored, the defensive team gains possession of the ball or the period ends resulting in a faceoff.

Get it in/Keep it in  Get it in/Keep it in 4-34 In certain situations, a “get it in/keep it in” command will be administered by game officials. “Get It In.” This warning is used when the ball is outside the goal area. An official signals and verbally announces “get it in.” The team in possession must advance the ball into the goal area within 10 seconds and keep it in the goal area. “Keep It In.” This warning is used when the ball is inside the goal area. An official signals and verbally announces “keep it in.” The team in possession must keep the ball in the goal area. “Get It In/Keep It In” situations are: Under two minutes remaining in the game when the game is not tied (See Rule 3-3); Stalling (See Rule 6-10). | 5 |
